fyfie5 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 that is super cool! how hard is it to wire up some footwell leds with a switch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ep82 Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 Very EASY mate and I am a R-tard when it comes to electronics. You just find a + power souce such as side lights or the ashtray light. Put that + to the + part of the switch. Connect the + from the LED to the middle of the switch and then connect the - from the LED to the bottom of the switch along with a earth from your car.Took me about 1/2 hour to wire everything up as I needed to remove trims and run wires through gaps. Now when I turn on the side/head lights, everything lights up. When it gets annoying. I just flick the switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ep82 Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 I just use Scotchlok/blade connetors.attach 1 to the + and 1 to the - and you are all set.all you need to do is squeeze with a pair of pliers They are like £2.50odd for 10 or 20 in the range.

ep82 Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 Got these JDM goodness straight from Japan32 pages brochure and a 20 page Customize CatalogueThese cars were actually built from ground up. You chose exactly what goes in there and what colours you want each parts. They called it 'Make the style'They have so many optional extras it's unreal. I think there are about 50+ to chose from. anything from TOM's or TRD coilovers, selections of front bumpers and tail lights to a cig lighters.
